After the presidential election last year, the Proud Boys, a far-right group, declared its undying loyalty to President Donald Trump.
In a Nov. 8 post in a private channel of messaging app Telegram, the group urged its followers to attend protests against an election that it said had been fraudulently stolen from Trump. “Hail Emperor Trump,” the Proud Boys wrote.
But by this week, the group’s attitude toward Trump had changed. “Trump will go down as a total failure,” the Proud Boys said in the same Telegram channel Monday.
As Trump departed the White House on Wednesday, the Proud Boys, once among his staunchest supporters, have also started leaving his side. In dozens of conversations on social media sites like Gab and Telegram, members of the group have begun calling Trump a “shill” and “extraordinarily weak,” according to messages reviewed by The New York Times. They have also urged supporters to stop attending rallies and protests held for Trump or the Republican Party.
The Proud Boys’ anger toward Trump has heightened after he did nothing to help those in the group who face legal action for the Capitol violence. On Wednesday, a Proud Boy leader, Joseph Biggs, 37, was arrested in Florida and charged with unlawful entry and corruptly obstructing an official proceeding in the riot. At least four other members of the group also face charges stemming from the attack.

" “Trump will go down as a total failure,” the Proud Boys said"..."members of the group have begun calling Trump a “shill” and “extraordinarily weak,”"...
ROFL !
The Proud Boys’ anger toward Trump has heightened after he did nothing to help those in the group who face legal action for the Capitol violence.

Trump ate the meal and stuck the Proud Cut Boys with the check.
I think the guy in the photo will need a little luck being able to get a decent job.
The Proud Boys are street thugs (note the baseball bats carried by the thug in the photo.). Their opinions have no logic or sense behind them, which makes one wonder why they would turn their back on Trump since they all think alike.
Well what do you know...... Another bunch of people that willfully let Trump use them, and discarded like a soiled diaper.....
May they slither back under the rocks that they came from. Need to do more to keep these and religious zelots out of elected office and the military.
One of his patterns of behaviour I noticed long ago. He's absolutely obsessed with loyalty. Loyalty towards him.
But interestingly, he has absolutely zero loyalty towards his supporters!
When have cons ever had any loyalty to their marks....?
They're all suckers and losers to tRump. The only loyalty tRump has is to tRumjp.
The Proud Boys learned loyalty from Donald Trump.
'A Total Failure'
'Takes One To Know One'

(Have you ever wondered-- what, exactly, are they so proud of?)
